Explanation:

                     8Fe        +        S₈                =>        8FeS

Given:            10g                  10g

moles      10g/56g/mol     10g/256g/mol

                = 0.179mol Fe   = 0.039mol S₈

Reduce => divide mole values by respective coefficients; smaller value is Limiting Reactant.

                 0.179/8 = 0.022      0.039/1 = 0.039  

       => Fe is limiting reactant

                       8Fe        +               S₈                   =>         8FeS    

Given:     10g/56g/mol          10g/256g/mol

               = 0.179mol              = 0.039 mol                  0.179mol FeS produced

                                          1/8(0.179)mol S₈ used        (coefficients are equal,

                                          = 0.022 mol S₈ used       => moles Fe = moles FeS)

                                         = (0.039 - 0.022)mol S₈     = 0.179mol FeS

                                         remains in excess              =(0.179mol)(88g/mol)

                                         = 0.0166 mol S₈ (excess)  = 15.8 g FeS  

                                         = (0.0166mol)(256g/mol)           (Theoretical Yield)

                                         = 4.26g S₈ in excess
